Does starting the last week of birth control pills start your period?
To my knowledge the last week of birth control pills are placebos. That means they are simply sugar pills that help keep you in a routine. I think the lack of regular birth control pills during that last week cause you to start your period because you stop the hormones associated with those pills. Of course, I haven't taken them for over 10 years and the new types may be different.

Will taking birth control and different times of the day make a period late?
Yes. As directed by all doctors and on the instruction labels of all birth control pills, you are supposed to take your birth control everyday and at the same time. If you take your birth control at different times everyday, it is not allowing the birth control to adapt in your body the way it is supposed to and it decreases the effectiveness of the birth control as well. Some side effects of taking your pill at different times of each day may include: pregnancy, late/irregular periods, and spotting or breakthrough bleeding.
Does medical history matter when taking birth control pills?
Yes. All brands of contraceptive pill increase your risk of getting blood clots and certain types of cancer.

Your doctor will be able to advise you on whether it is a safe methode of contraception for you.
